Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
easy peasy....
What I was really thinking of was "okey dokey, artichokey", so even my question was wrong.
I'm glad you asked it wrong because thanks to you and ita, I have been saying "Easy peasy, George and Weezy" ALL. DAY. LONG!!

Don't get me started on gas costs! I just filled up last night at $1.95.
ETA: And that's the Lake County cost; Cook County is higher, and Chicago city costs are higher yet.

My point was only that I often hear that you have to tip a waiter X because they count on tips as income, regardless of how good or bad the service was.
My answer to that is the bad ones had best seek employment where their flaws won't have an immediate negative effect on their income.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Aims and MM, I'm very sorry. Though I'm a little entertained that where other people get brackets, your announcement prompted a string of copious swearing.

Edit: Apparently women are bad tippers. I know I am. Maybe it's a "Oh, you're delivering food, I know exactly how hard that is" thing.
